Of worldly pain and pleasure —
And worldly suffering and success,
To pursue a greater treasure.
Jesus anchored all the happiness
Of suffering saints in heaven`s reward
And the blessedness of righteousness
Is anchored in the Lord
Hope of Heaven my Joy`s mainstay
Anchor of my soul, help me stand I pray.
With my heart tethered to your promises, Lord
I will obey and will wait for heaven`s reward.
Our Joy is safe- we need not fear
Our anchor will hold firm
And heaven holds our future there
Through every coming term
If your name is in the Book of Life
Your destiny is secure
An inheritance kept safe through strife-
Infinite, eternal, sure.
Hope of Heaven my Joy`s mainstay
Anchor of my soul help me stand I pray.
With my heart tethered to your promises Lord
I will obey and will wait for heaven`s reward.
Bridge
God`s promises protect our joy
Not suffering nor our success
Neither can our anchor destroy
This hope and surety we confess.
Hope of Heaven my Joy`s mainstay
Anchor of my soul help me stand I pray
With my heart tethered to your promises, Lord
I will obey and will wait for heaven`s reward.
